Specification of Letters Patent,

Patented June 12, 1906.

Application filed June '7, 1904:. Serial No. 211,478.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARRY CLARK, a citi- Zen of the United States ofAmerica, and a resident of St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and Stateof Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inWatch- Holders, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in watch-holders, and has for itsobject a device that is simple in construction and effective in use forholding a watch with its face exposed to view.

In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure1 is a sectional view of my invention, showing a watch having an openface therein; and Fig. 2 is a front view of the holder shown in Fig. 1.

In the drawings let A represent the holder, which consists, primarily,of a horizontal base 2, an inclined frame 3, and means for holding thewatch on said .base and frame. In the drawings these elements consist ofan inclosure formed by two telescopic sections 4 and 5. The section 4 isclosed upon its lower end to form the base 2 and slides into the section5,- which is closed at its upper end. These sections are respectivelyformed with circular openings 7, which coincide to expose the face ofthe watch B, which stands in the sections, as shown in Fig. 1. Thesections are made of suitable dimensions for the watch to fitsnuglytherein, and the base 2 is formed at an oblique angle to the upper andlower sides of the sections. The open end of the upper section is alsocut at a corresponding angle to the base. This angle is adjusted so thatthe frame, with the watch therein, will stand in reclining position, asshown in Fig. 1, when placed upon a suitable support.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to tersPatent, is y A holder of the class set forth, consisting of twotelescopic inclosing sections, the end of one section being closed andarranged obliquely to its upper and lower sides to support the holder ininclined position, and an opening passing through the upper sides ofsaid sections, for the purposes specified.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.

HARRY CLARK.
